Oh, exclusive information. Great. [0:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=2) Coming in at the same time, live. Apparently, there are many injured people. [0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=7) Yes. Uh, and actually, Kylian Mbappé doesn't feel like playing. [0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=11) Huh? Yeah, he's not feeling it or keen to play. [0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=14) He says it's… So the match against Italy, he doesn't care as it's the Nations League, it's not exactly a very, very important match. [0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=20) But considering all the injured players, uh, Kylian Mbappé doesn't feel up to playing. [0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=24) He doesn't feel like playing. That's it. [0:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=25) So as he's not very fit, he said, "No, forget it." There. [0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=28) Oh, so he's not injured then? And since, uh, like, like Zidane, Zinédine Zidane, he's very nice, But Didier Deschamps was extremely nice to Kylian Mbappé, I have reliable information, okay. [0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=40) Zinédine Zidane won't be as nice to him as Didier was. [0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=43) He did a little— You should know that Kylian Mbappé acted a little like a diva. [0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=47) Yeah, with so many injuries, I don't know if I'll play, and so on. [0:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=50) Zinédine Zidane said, "Know what? You won't play." [0:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=52) All right, thanks. Oh, okay. All right, stop. Thanks. You stay, you stay over there. [0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=56) You can't say, "I don't want to play." So, it'll be denied, and so on. [0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=59) But you should know I've got information— For sure. From the inside. [1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=63) There you go, darlings. Um, there, so I'm telling you. [1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=66) So, um, so Zinédine Zidane, who isn't— who wasn't as nice as Didier Deschamps was with Kylian. [1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=70) Uh, because he, he had tantrums with Didier Deschamps too, but Didier let a bit more slide. [1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=74) Because Didier, well, Zid-Zid-Zidane, well, he doesn't mess around. [1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=78) He said, “Yeah, well, I don't know.” Then you don't play. [1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=81) There you go, that's how it is. So he doesn't play. That's it. [1:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=84) But darling, he stays. You know, last time, he was criticized for leaving. [1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=88) He was injured, left as captain, but now he stays. [1:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=90) And know that things are really, really heating up with Kylian Mbappé in the France team. Yes, yes, he's… [1:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=96) Latest news. Very isolated. Uh, well, I have information from, as they say, the inside. [1:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=100) There you go. It's inside information, Bernard Lavilliers. [1:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=103) Uh, no, no, I'm telling you. There. I'm telling you, things are going badly, uh, with his, uh, teammates, and so Zidane. [1:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=111) I say, bravo, Zinédine Zidane. I— There, he's got balls. He said: Know what? [1:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=114) You don't want to play, then get out, you're not playing. [1:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=117) There. Thanks. Bravo, bravo, Zizou. I've one thing to say: you're the boss. [2:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=121) Will he play later? You're the boss. For Sunday's match? I don't know if he'll play, but… [2:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=125) Is he injured? Either way, he stays. Zidane, no, he stays. I think Zidane told him: You're not playing. We'll see if you behave. [2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=131) Maybe on Sunday, you'll play. For now, put on cleats, run around the stadium. [2:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=134) Uh, there. Thanks. It's true there have been some recent gestures of kindness from Kylian Mbappé toward his teammates or members of the staff that seemed very unusual. [2:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=143) So people thought, What does he want? He wants back our trust and friendship. [2:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/FaBNwNmpaTWZ/en/mbapp%C3%A9-zidane-and-france-alleged-tensions-ahead-of-italy-match?t=146) There you go.
